How many 3 prong plugs are on the back? One or two? The outlet I need to plug it in to won't fit any adapters that need to use both.

Hello, there is only one 3-prong plug on the back of the GE Grounded Adapter-Spaced Six-Outlet Tap. There is a small plastic supporting prong that pokes out below the 3-prong plug on the back that would go into the second outlet.

Wow! You've reached my dumb factor at the moment! It's two prongs and fits in a 3 hole outlet, ( 120 volts) but it's a two prong charging cord. I know when I went to S.A. They use 240 volts and I had to buy an adapter before traveling! Hope I helped you. :-)

The original adapter for mine was the square where this is more of a rectangle. You will be able to plug something next to this fine if you are using a wall socket and plugging this into the top slot and anything can plug into the bottom socket. If you are using something like a surge protector then this will cover 2 slots.

No it won't work in your outlet. This adaptor has the 3rd (grounding) plug on it. Unless you modify it, which I wouldnt recommend but I have seen done..

I'm able to plug in a three prong (grounded extension cord) in the other outlet. It's a tight fit.

I too am confused by the question. In the US, adapters are generally used to adapt two prong female (US) to three prong female (with the ground prong). So, maybe the answer is that you do not need a "adapter" (not really a true converter) at all, as you can plug in either a 3 prong male plug or a 2 prong male plug into this device (if within power limits).

This is a 3 prong meaning it has the grounding prong. Any retailer or hardware store has the adapter that converts a 3-plug prong to a 2-plug prong but I would advise you check with an electrician before you consider this method. Hope this helps answer your question

The prongs fit into a standard three prong outlet but the plug is much larger than standard because it has a reset feature. So plug covers more than usual of outlet.

We think you need 2 Prong to 3 Prong Grounding Adapter, Amazon ASIN # B003XDF2H2 "Grounding Adaptor - 2 Pack"

It is 3 prong where it goes into the wall. The picture is bad, you are right. It's a very sturdy plug but only good if you don't need to actually adapt the outlet to take 3 prongs instead of 2.

Oh so sorry , just saw this, the back on the unit says 120 volts, it has 2 prongs and plugs into any of my outlets. Standard for the U.S.

both of the ones I have are 2 prong plugs (but I am using them connected to 3prong timers - I would suggest getting 3 prong timers as you may find yourself using them for other things also...)

You would be better off the changing the two(2)prong outlet for a three(3)prong.for ground protection.And for a two or three dollars investment,you will be safe

3 prong but you can use a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter with it, they only cost a couple of bucks to get. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=3+prong+to+2+prong+adapter

It is a 3-prong. It is a grounded outlet, so it has to have 3-prong. It is a great outlet.

Be aware that that outlets are only 2-pronged. Most appliances are 3-pronged. You will need a converter if your appliance is 3-pronged. I believe there's a similar cart available in black.
